Family Impact

This single mother and her teenage son ran away from an abusive father, and was forced to apply for assistance from LA Family Housing. With their support, the family transitioned from living in their car and into motels. When the family joined our case load, our FPV staff began providing counseling and created a housing plan. Within a month the family was able to transition into our FPV Rapid Rehousing program and secure housing. With this support the family may now begin focus on financial and housing benchmarks. We look forward to working with them!

Moreno Family Attain Housing – For the past three months the Moreno family has been living in motels and was unable tot reach their goals on their own. However, upon joining the FPV case load, the family began to received support from the staff who helped them create a housing and employment plan. The family of three began to feel confident in their future when the father was able to secure a full-time job and begin to generate income. Soon after with proof of income and with the advocacy our staff provided, the pregnant Mother, Father, and infant transitioned into an apartment near the fathers place of business. The family was enrolled into our Burbank Rapid Rehousing program and is now thriving because of the barriers that are now removed.
